I like to stay very supported whether it be in a everyday bra or sports bra. This Sports bra does that even while doing P90. I put in my size and it adjusted it to European size, almost feel runs big as I have only worn (1) week and I am wearing it on the tightest setting.

I like the fit on this bra, I think it's accurate. The cups are foam but they are thin foam and don't add size. The stitching details are also really pretty. I will be buying this in other colors at some point. Also, this bra won't show up under a shirt!

This is literally my every day go-to bra. The molded cup and balconette shape are both flattering and comfortable under any garment.
The bra has reasonable coverage, neither "full" or barely there.
I've found the band is a little too big, but not quite enough for a full size down. I usually have to start on the second set of hooks which means the bra doesn't last as long :/
I'm a 36H in Panache, but I usually order this one in a 36GG because their 36H has some extra room for me, resulting in "folding" of the cups.

I was amazed at how comfortable this bra was to wear right out of the package. I was surprised to see that it was also very supportive. On top of that it is very pretty with the ribbons and lace. Who would have thought you could get all three in the larger cup sizes? The fabric is not the least bit scratchy, even the lace part.
The cup is true to size but, the band is a little small. If you are on the edge of a band size, you might want to get the next size up. However, it is my experience that the band relaxes a little after a few wearings, so it's not a big concern. Another odd thing is the upper fabric is very transparent, so your nipples show through. Since it's an undergarment, it's also not a big concern to me, but some people might be disturbed by it.
I had originally ordered this bra to wear for special occasions, but it is supportive and comfortable enough for everyday wear.

I love this bra,and have it in two colors. It fits well, and is very comfortable-- more than regular bras for yoga as neither the straps nor the underwire cut in with movement. These bras are very comfortable. Finally a sports bra in large size that I can wear with any yoga tank. It doesn't have any ugly seams across the front cups, which many sports bras (including other Freya bras) have. When the straps show the colors are cute. In fact, don't worry about the buying the bright blue bra -- the straps are the only thing that show and the pink/yellow combo looks good. In addition to blue I also have it in black with white trim and have ordered the crimson color. I've been wearing it for the past few months and always one of these to workouts now.

This bra provides good fit and good support, as I have regularly experienced with elomi bras. However, it says it is a t-shirt bra, and that is what I was looking for. I really loved the Hermione bra that was similar to this, however, the lace on the sides of these cups extends further forward than on the Hermione bra, and while the cups are seamless and thus don't have the horizontal line across the bust showing through my t-shirt, I instead have a vertical line from the lace showing through. That is annoying in a t-shirt bra. If I hadn't been looking for a t-shirt specific bra, and if this weren't sold as such, it would have gotten 5 stars instead of 4.

I gave this bra 4 stars because it doesn't have the next size up available, 38GG. FREYA...MAKE THIS IN A 38GG! I love that it has only two hooks...most bras for larger busted women tend to have three or four. As a woman with a very short torso and large bosom, I can't use the bras with more hooks because the bra will tend to poke into my armpits...a most uncomfortable feeling. I'd love to see this bra in more colors too.

So comfortable especially the shoulder straps. I love the feel of the material. Its a sexy classy look. Im a 34DD but needed to return it for a 32DD even though the 32 is a little tight I know after a few months of wear the material will stretch and allow me to stay supportive for longer lasting wear.

I was concerned about the bra having only two hook/eye closures, because normally my bras come with three. However, this bra is still super supportive, and I don't worry at all about anything falling out or coming undone.
The only cons are that the underwire comes up into my armpits somewhat, and the fabric on this one is a bit scratchy. I am 5'2 and have trouble finding bras in my cup size that do not have the underwire issue. I am keeping this bra and have worn it several times, but I probably will not order it again. But it would probably be perfect for taller ladies. :)
I HIGHLY recommend the Panache Tango ACCENTI balconette bra (see my review there), as it did not have the underwire or fabric problem.

My daughter found your site on line and told me to look for a better Bar at your bare necessities site, and I did. I called for a fitting and they helped me find out that I was wearing the wrong size all this time!
I am now wearing a: 30 G, Freya Active Sport Bra. The Bar came to my door Very quickly, and it fits PERFECT. I Love my New Freya Active Sport Bra, it is cool, a Great Fit, the straps never fall down, I don't Bounce at all, it holds"the GIRLS" up where they should Be!
I Ordered another right away, I will order more soon.
Thank you very much, I Love my Bare Necessities Bra..

I am hard to fit. I have one bra that is Emoli and love it. Went on line hoping I would have the same experience with Emoli without being fitted first. Came in wrong size (my fault) so sent back and exchanged. Bare Necessities shipped quickly and with out question! Just what I hoped and expected. Thank you!

I have the Fantasie Smoothing Balcony bra, both the padded and unlined, and wear them constantly. I love the unlined, it has great support and shape. My only wish is that they came in more colors than black and nude. So I was so happy to find the Echo bra in red, it is beautiful!! It has the same great fit and feel as the Smoothing but definitely prettier. Please make both of these bras in more colors! I would say the unlined styles are consistently sized in both styles, however the padded Smoothing runs just slightly bigger in the cup. I wear a 34 E. Also all of the Fantasie bras wash well and seem to be lasting much longer than other brands.

After loving this bra and then hating it and then loving it again, I have finally decided that I do indeed love this bra and it is my favorite.
This was my first bra in 32G (UK sizing) after I was fit properly. I loved it in the beginning but eventually the scratchy lace got to me. More so because I am short and the sides come almost to the armpits sometimes and that was NOT comfortable.
Now after having returned a tonne of Panache, Freya, Wacoal, Curvy Kate and what not, I realised that this gave me the best shape.
The most important thing is that it holds up and forward and doesn't push to the sides (which only makes you feel like the boobs are being smashed and looks large/shapeless both from sides and front). Indeed, I haven't even found a bra which does it as much as this does. Secondly, it has excellent side support- also very flattering. The other things about this bra is the thick straps, imagine having heavy breasts on noodles straps! And it has a thick sides and band.
I would definitely change the lace to a softer fabric. For people which unusual (read large) breasts, who have so few bras to choose from, we would be okay with cotton! Don't try to make it pretty, make it strong!

This is a great tshirt bra since the foam lining isn't too thick. It seems to be lined with just enough of the foam. I love the option of wearing the bra with j-hook in the back. The racerback style is great for wearing tank tops.

After wasting 100$ on nursing bras from a mother maternity store I came across this one. Although more expensive than others purchased it is well worth every penny. (I ended up buying a 2nd one and will probably buy some more!) I no longer have a 3 and 4 boob all the time and am able to wear this bra all day with no major discomfort. It covers completely and has larger straps to hold up my large chest. So glad I found a comfortable nursing bra!

I'm a bigger busted girl, 32J, so good strapless bras are really tough to come by. I was hesitant to buy one at all, to be honest. This one is actually really great though. I can wear it for several hours and not have to yank it back in to place, it stays put where it should be. The fit is true to size and it doesn't add any extra cup sizes when I don't need them. My only complaint is that after a few hours my ribs do tend to feel a little sore, but it's a minor inconvenience I'm willing to have for a bra that actually does it's job.

I went for a bra fitting and Goddess and Panache were recommended. This was my first Goddess purchase and I couldn't be happier! The quality is great and it also provides all day and comfortable support! I will be buying more.

Cup size/shape fits great, very natural. I was looking for a bra I felt comfortable wearing now that I am back to work in a professional setting. This works great, looks good under clothes but easy to pump/nurse while wearing it!

Actually I have not worn the Bra for any length of time as yet but I did have an experienced fitter fit it for me. It felt comfortable, looked GREAT made me feel VERY SEXY. Would definitely buy this product again.

This bra fits me like a glove. I ordered a 38H and thought the cups might be a bit small, as I'm between a 38H and 38I. The cups covered everything, no spillage. And the multiple back hooks virtually eliminate any back-fat.
Very minor issues: you may need help to get all those hooks closed! But if you have large heavy breasts, this bra really keeps them "up" and in place. I wouldn't recommend wearing this with a clingy t-shirt, but I wore it with a slightly thicker v-neck tee, and there were no seam lines.

Love, love, love this strapless! First of all, the color is gorgeous! Second of all it supports the girls, it doesn't just sit there expecting you to do all of the work. I ordered it in a 34GG and it's fan-freaking-tastic! I shouldn't be so suprised because my other good strapless bra is made by Fantasie; this bra is exceptional!

Some of the reviews said it will fit a bit small - and I agree, the band size is a bit snug. I don't think going up a size would work for me.
The bra itself is fantastic; other than that it fits well, is comfortable, and looks good. It's hard to find a bra that makes me feel sexy with 34FF and this bra does it.
It has enough padding to offer structure, which I prefer because my breasts are primarily fat and don't have much shape. The bra offers a lot of support and I have no issues with running up and down the stairs.
I ordered the bra in the dusty rose, and the colour is a lot more "dusty" than I expected. For some reason I thought it would be mildly pink; it isn't really. That's okay; I still like it a lot and it still looks good. The black piping and bow are what make this bra feel sexy for me.

This bra gives good support and a nice shape, despite the fact that it's not really padded. The colors look really good also. Sizing is perfect--not too tight on my bigger boob, but not floppy on the smaller one. So happy with this bra!

This brassiere along with the Goddess Alice are THE 2 bras I can actually wear. I'm very full-busted, and these two styles provide strong support and actually do cover the bosom, which means no uncomfortable jiggling around. It's becoming nearly impossible to find bras that aren't deeply revealing, and at my size, I'd rather be contained than have everything pouring out of the brassiere. I'm only sorry I was not able to purchase that beautiful purple color. I will be ordering more of these bras in the future, and hope very much that Goddess will continue to make them.

I have to order a bunch of different bras at once so I can go through them to find which one I like best. I loved this bra. It is a very sexy bra. I have a very hard time finding a bra in my size (38 K) especially one that will not give me what I call "torpedo boob." Although this bra has somewhat thin material, it keeps a round shape, which I find more appealing. It also doesn't completely cover the entire breast, so you can wear it with a low cut shirt. My only two complaints: I feel like the wire will pop out pretty easily, so I know I will be sewing them, and also, only black and nude? C'mon, Cleo!

I have always had to wear 2 sports bras to be able to even jog. I have no issues with running or CrossFit with this one. It holds everything in place for box jumps, burpees, pull-ups, whatever my coaches throw at me. The only improvement I would make is for it to compress just a little bot more so "the girls" stay out of the way for weightlifting. It's definitely not enough of an issue to keep searching for a different bra. I've tried Enell and Lynx and a few others, this is hands-down the best.

I really like this bra. When I first put it on, I thought it may be too small because of the amount of cleavage, but it fits well. I feel supported and comfortable. The band might be a bit snug, but works on the last setting. I'm sure it will stretch and I plan on losing some weight this summer anyways. All in all, I'm satisfied.

I LOVE this bra!! I bought it in white a year ago. I just got it in black. I have slight scoliosis and with a dropped right shoulder am constantly pulling the right strap back up, but with this bra the criss-cross solved that! I bought the Fantasie Jana Convertible T-shirt bra to try something different and I couldn't get in it! With this Freya Deco I hook up the straps in the back, cross it over and hook it at the cup. Easy! I have a tiny bit of spillage out of the cup if I'm bent over moving around, but other than that it's perfect! It's not too thick of padding, but if you're self conscience about "headlights" when you are cold no worries with this bra! I will say this about this bra, you might want to go down a band size and up a cup size simply because after a year the band tends to get a little stretched out. This is what I did for the black one and it worked perfectly!

Someone tell me why this bra has been discontinued! I wore the Fantasie Cally for many years, until it was also discontinued. I have tried and returned tens of other bras and was just about reduced to wearing rags when Fantasie finally came out with the Samantha. The fit is excellent for for me - very large busted but with a petite frame and narrow shoulders.

I bought two of these bras about 6 months ago. I have large breasts (34GG) and I really liked the support of the bra-it's the best I've found to date. Here are my beefs:
1. The straps only tighten to a certain point. The extra padding on the bra didn't allow me to tighten the straps as far as I needed for maximum support. A huge bummer since I loved the bra otherwise
2. If you have full on bottom breasts, this bra is still going to sag a little at the top of the cups
3. One of my bras recently ripped on the cup-irreparable. This bra is a good quality but I expected more wear out of a bra in this price range.
4. The underwires are very wide so if you have narrow breast roots, expect some digging in under the armpit.
